To us, this was all a joke, but some people really take it seriously. Some people are so stupid, it's scary.

Yeah when you give all your money to a cult leader. He might not be having sex with his followers but he is a cult leader.

That is a little harsh - they're not all "crazy psychos"!

Well it is the day after the rapture...somehow we were all left. I guess that is God's message to humanity....(dark humor)

With apologies to REM, and thanks for their cool little rap song:

someone on page 1 said something to the effect of there's no biblical support for the rapture and that its only been introduced in the past 200 years.


the idea has been around for a lot longer than that.
the question isn't "is there support for the rapture" but is there support for a pre-tribulation rapture.

you can read all 99 interpretations of the same passages if you want.
personally, i believe that entropy wins, and i'm not putting any faith into someone's best selling book that says the rapture comes before s**t hits the fan.

Howard Camping has just changed the date to October 21, 2011. This guy totally lacks credibility.

89 or 90 year old fool will soon run out of time. Scaring people and scamming money out of it. TV Evangelists are scum bags and only care about the money they can scam out of people. He is either crazy or a sociopath.

Terrible shame that many people believe in this cult leaders. His predictions are always proven wrong every time. No man knows when the date or time the world will end.

We will have the last laugh when this old crazy psycho bites the dust and dies from old age.

Any mainstream christian pastor will tell you that nobody knows the answer to that.

There was no Rapture on May 21. This guy is a total nut case and a fraud. How can anyone take him seriously? There is no such thing as a Rapture. TV evangelists are dangerous people selling a poisoned version of religion to the masses solely to line their own pockets. TV evangelists are more immoral, corrupt and are complete hypocrites of the holier and though lifestyle they preach to the masses.

October 21 will come and go without anything unusual happening. Rapture will never happen. It is just a mad religious guy trying to predict the end of the world that will never happen. Camping makes a lot of money out of selling this Rapture nonsense to the uneducated fools who believe in it.

Mayan calendar end date: 20 Dec 2012 or 21 Dec 2012 will come and go without anything happening. The world will go on, no man can predict the end of times. Every predicted End of Times date will come and pass without anything significant occurring. Doomsday prophets are always wrong. Good for entertainment value but too bad for the uneducated sheep who follow these religious lunatics.

TV evangelists are just cult leaders and religious fundamentalists selling their own interpretations of the Bible to brainwash uneducated sheep and making a lot of money out of it in the process.
